Shopping Bags

I just made my second trip with my canvas bags that I found on sale at WalMart last week. I was going to make me some, and still may make a couple of 'pretties' to carry around, but these were such a good price and so sturdy that I went ahead and bought a bunch of them. Had them load those puppies up with my groceries, etc., the very same day I bought them. :) I have just gotten back from a trip to the Post Office, Family Dollar, and a small grocery store that's near out P. O. The Family Dollar and IGA loaded those canvas bags and didn't bat an eye! Am I pleased or WHAT???? YESSSS! Also found out that IGA offers paper bags as well! I'm soooo glad to know that. I will be using paper at their store from now on IF I don't have a canvas with me OR not enough canvas bags with me. :D I'm determined to at least rid myself of as many of those plastic bags they're using in every store in the whole country as I can.

I made two more spool blocks before bed last night. Mmmmm, Darlene, looks like you're right again---they ARE addictive!! That's all I've thought about the whole time I've been out running around today (necessary chores)---I wanna go home and make SPOOL BLOCKS!!! LOL

Okay now I have to look at WalMart for those bags, I am with you was planning to make that schlep bag for using at the grocery.. but those look perfect and gosh on sale too!!!! good find girly!! Those darn plastic bags are going to fill up the world!! :O(

I've been enjoying the heck out of my Trader Joe's bags - but I do like to have a plastic one come through every now and then. They make great packing material for mailing and also are good for pooper scooper duty *s*
